King Pratap Malla of Kathmandu has a big name in the history of Nepal. Almost all historians consider him a skilled ruler, great reformer, and good personality. However, one aspect of Pratap Malla's life is that anyone who gets to know him may hate him. Raja Pratap Malla, who was a married couple and more than 100 concubines, was very erotic in his youth. According to the legend in Kathmandu, he was always with women.
Because of his such opposite sex attraction, King Pratap Malla was sometimes converted from man to animal. The incident that resulted in the conversion of Raja Pratap Malla into an animal is 1712 B.S At that time, a girl was caught in the eyes of King Pratap Malla. The story says that when Raja Pratap Malla proposed sex to the girl who did not even have menstruation, the girl, who did not even know the meaning of it, got into confusion when the king forced her, which is called rape in present day language.
The girl, who could not bear her pain, died immediately after being forced into Raja Pratap Malla. After the death of the girl, King Pratap Malla trembled with fear of a fateful fate. On seeing the king's condition, he was immediately taken to Pashupatinath shelter.
At Pashupatinath, King Pratap Malla spent about three months doing penance. During this stay, King Pratap Malla established Kotihom in Pashupatinath and also established Kotti Ling. The gold bull that we see on the roof of Pashupatinath is also offered by Raja Pratap Malla for his sins.Not only that, Raja Pratap Malla also paid a balance of silver for all his male members in the royal family at that time. Then Tantrik Lambarkarna Bhatt of the Durbar informed that he had been acquitted. The drama 'Giti Digambar', which was composed in the same happiness, is still regarded as one of the greatest achievements of Malla period literature.
